Biology

Physiology

Blaziken is red pokemon with the appearance of a monstrous pokemon. Even though Blaziken has a monster-like appearance it's not in the Monster Egg Group. It's hair is in a V-shape, fire is sprouting out of its wrist, it's yellow leg hair is covering it's feet, and it has cream colored hair in its head-neck area.

Gender differences

A female has shorter "hair" than a male. The V-shape on a female's "mask" is also smaller.

Special abilities

Blaziken has the special ability Blaze. With this, it is able to use Fire-Type moves with up to 150% damage, but only if its Hp is below 30%. In addition to this, Blaziken can leap to incredible heights with its impressive leg strength. It can also cover its fists and feet with fire while battling. In Pokemon Black and White, you can get a Torchic from Dream World with the ability Speed Boost, which makes it's speed rise every turn. This ability is then retained when Torchic is fully evolved into Blaziken. It can also leap over a skyscraper with a single jump. It can make flames spout from its wrists and ankles, cloaking its feet or fists, and practices a form of martial art with these abilities. The stronger the foe it faces, the more intensely its flames burn. It may also launch a fiery kick at the opponent.

Evolution

Blaziken is the evolved form of Combusken, and is the final evolutionary form of the starter PokémonTorchic. Starting at level 36, Combusken can evolve into Blaziken. Blaziken can evolve into its mega form during battle in Pokemon X/Y using Blazikenite.

Trivia

The first and second evolutions of Gen. III-V fire starters are Fire-Fighting type.

Blaziken's base attack is the second highest of all the final form starter Pokémon after Emboar.

Its name is derived from the word "Blaze" and "Chicken".

Blaziken is the only fire starter not able to learn Flamethrower through leveling up.

It is thought that Blaziken's legs are based on MC Hammer's parachute pants.

Though Blaziken is Fire/Fighting type, it can learn Flying-type moves such as Mirror Move and Brave Bird. This may be because its face and hair are birdlike and its pre-evolutions resemble birds, but instead of flying it fights.

Blaziken can cause fire to erupt from its wrists, usually during fights, though they may flare up more when angry or threatened.
